BUSY BIRDS.

Professor Budd, in the Iowa State
Register, says: Few realize the work
of the busy birds in distributing the
seeds of our fruits, shrubs and trees.
Last Fall when directing the blowing
up of sprouts from the edge of row
of cldcrbcrry, we noticed seedlings Of
grape, raspberry, strawberry, currapt,
goosberrv. mulberry and other cult
waited plants, At first we were puzzled
to account for the variety of species un-
til we happened to think that it was
a favorite resort for the birds from the
time the first elderberry began TO turn,
until late in the Fall. Passing this
elump again to-day, | noticed seedlings
further in, of tree honeysuckles, shrub
berry, st. Johnswort, mock orange,
Missouri currant and one or two other
shrubs of the college grounds, none of
which grew near, In the Seeding bus
mess the birds may aid us in our
attempts to secure varieties adapted TO
our climate."

The statement going the rounds that the
Interstate law is giving the farmers. of

bushel for their wheat than they would
otherwise have had, is rank nonsense.
Every one knows that through rates from
Chicago TO New York are no lower than
formerly, while rates by water are higher.
And several new or roundabout lines which
formerly gaze reduced rates on grain, etc,
TO secure busi-ess, are now shut out. and
the Illinois farmers have lost the benefit Of
their competitions. If these farmers begin
to ask ugly questions in July, what will
they do after the new crop is ready for

a LOcI 1hitNN.
When through silent night. the snow
Falling remained on branch and 81 ray,
My ash tree, high against the gray
OF morning, caught the sunrise glow.
Isaw its feathers in the spring
Spread large and green with sun and shower
watched through many a sunny hour
And saw its shadow eastward swing.
The ong-birGs found its welcome good.
They built and sang and brooded there
The oriole flashing through the air,
And all the soberer brotherhood.
When all the elms were turning brown,
And naples blazed i'll gold and red
1t lifted up its tawny head
A monarch with its iron crown.
The price of wood my neighbor knows;
He loves not too much life TO see
And so he cut away my tree
In one short hour of ringing blows
The sky is empty, where of old
Its branches swept across the blue;
And sunshine falls unbroben through
Where waving shadows fiecked its gold.
The bluebird, herald of the spring,
And all the goodly company
That sang and rested in my tree
Must now fly otherwhere to sing.
And olden music sacred grown,
OF which their song was but part
And olden memories of the heart,
Are i'll u moment overthrown.
Yet beauty falls not in the end
With stroke of ak or hammer blow:
Inc ideal home remains. and, 10
Beside 1t stands my vanished friend

LONDON, August S--NOw that the
much amended and often patched up Land
bill, formulated ostensibly for the relief of
Ireland, is passed. 1t will soon be realized
how far the tenants of Ireland are benefited
by it, The bill certainly eases the solvent
tenants, those who owe no arrears, and
can, especially under the reduction Of rents
that the bill cOntemplateS, keep themselves
square with their landlords. To them the
passage of the bill Is a great boon. but how
is it with the poor peasant holders, who
exc out a haud-to-mouth existence. They
are left la ID, lurah 10y tire same bill that
favorably affects their more fortunate
neighbors.
There is no provision in the bill for the
relief of the man who owes for arrears All
the good the hill can do him he cannot
appreciate, for the crushing debt must he
paid. The very idea of the whole measure
is thus vitlatcd. lOr the number il assists
is small compared with those whom il can
not touch 1t is hoped that the Lords,
when 1t comes TO them. as II will do to-day,
will admit 10 its already numerous clauses
a mutual remedial clause which will con
fer some benefit upon the unfortunate and
hopeleSSly IN debt. ~ well ~ the tenant
whois free from such encumbrance. But that
the House Of Lords will consider it neces
S,ry TO make any change in what has been
passed by the Commons relating TO the
Irish is doubtful. Sir John GOrst, Par
liamentary Secretary tor the Indian Office,
yesterday admitted that there was no cure
for Ireland in what he termed heroic acts,
and that he could hardly hope for the sue
